Does anyone know if (and where) you can buy castile soap in Korea?

Also, does anyone know if Ecover laundry/cleaning products are available anywhere in Korea?

The chain store Watson's usually carries Dr. Brauner's castile soup. Ive also seen it at Shinsaegae Dapartment store (at Express Bus terminal) in the organic food/product section. It's quite expensive combared to back in the states, but the liquid soap goes a long way.

I haven't seen Ecover products but you can get Seventh Generation laundry and cleaning stuff at Hannam supermarket and the organic shop mentioned above in Sinsegae dept store. Expensive here but worth it not to have all those nasty chemicals and be cruelty free Smile

Awesome! Thanks! I'll pick some up when I take hubby and baby up to Incheon for a visit home.

Unfortunately Seventh Generation doesn't make cloth diaper safe fabric softener like Ecover. Sad I do like their laundry soap though. I'm using Maggie's Soap Nuts for detergent right now, it's the eco-friendly softener I'm trying to find. Plus I make my baby wash and big people wash out of castile soap.

I wonder if the Shinsegae in Gwangju would have it?
